I too am struggling with how to get RF out on 1.2ghz. Right now Im leaning toward the SG-Labs 1296 transverter (1296/144) which I think someone mentioned sometime back. Many positive reviews on moon-net. If you have any interest in local repeaters or EME on 1296, along with activating AO92 via L band, for $198 PNP, this is hard to beat.

Good day to all. Related to my previous post, please check this link for an interesting NBFM transceiver board for L-band uplinks:

Now I just need to find time!

> For those who receive the DKARS magazine, there is a very interesting article. The transceiver described is for ATV, but it looks like like it will tune to the AO-92 uplink frequency. Seems to put out 400mw FM out. I am not able to take time now to review deeper (stealing away from work) but I look forward to parsing through the schematic/links this weekend. I am forwarding this notice for anyone who will be able to get there sooner. I think there is some potential here, and I would like to know other’ opinions.
